Power supply systems for most of today's latest applications must be able to manage how multiple outputvoltages rise after input power is applied. These power supplies must also be capable of starting up intopreexisting external voltages present at the output. Another important requirement is supply voltagemargining i.e. the ability of the power supply to momentarily adjust the output volt

THS8135 PCB Layout Guidelines

This design note describes the UCC3954 evaluation kit which allows the designer to evaluate the performance of the UCC3954 Single-Cell Lithium-Ion to +3.3V Converter. The UCC3954 along with a few external components develops a regulated +3.3V from a single lithium-ion battery in which terminal voltage can vary between 2.5V and 4.2V. The UCC3954 uses a simple flyback (buck-boost) technique to co

The DSP Controller TMS320F240 from Texas Instruments is suitable for a wide range of motor drives. TMS320F240 provides a single chip solution by integrating on-chip not only a high computational power

IMPLEMENTING A HARDWARE MONITOR USING THE TMS320C40 ANALYSIS MODULE AND JTAG INTERFACE FOR PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS IN A MULTI-DSP SYSTEM

The AM18xx devices use a great deal of internal pin multiplexing to allow the most functionality in the smallest and lowest cost package. This software allows the pin multiplexing registers of the device to be calculated with ease as well as showing what peripherals can be used together and what devices support the peripherals that are selected. This software is useful to anyone creating a system

Fault tolerance transient protection and interference rejection are valuable features that isolation amplifiers bring to critical circuitry. Two useful examples of how designers can employ isolation amplifiers to improve their systems? performance and reliability are process temperature controllers and electrocardiogram (ECG) amplifiers.

Code Composer Studio Integrated Development Environment v4 is a major new release based on the Eclipse open source software framework. The Eclipse software framework is used for many different applications but it was originally developed as an open framework for creating development tools. We have chosen to base CCStudio v4 on Eclipse as it offers an excellent software framework for building soft

The TPS61060, TPS61061, and TPS61062 are efficient white light-emitting diode (WLED) drivers. These ICs also can be configured as a constant voltage power supply. When in constant voltage mode, the TP

This application bulletin explains how to retrieve data from the DDC112. It elaborates on the discussion given in the DDC112 data sheet and provides additional information to allow you more flexiblity during retrieval. It is assumed that you have a basic understanding of the DDC112's operation.

This application note presents novel power architectures with regard to the ac-dc total power supply for anLCD TV design achieving higher power efficiencies and lower cost. The revolutionary iHVM™ mechanism enables intelligent LED bias control to minimize power loss. On the other hand the fast LED drivers provide precise LED ON-OFF control. In this report two reference designs are discussed.
